“I am really impressed that Caleb University was able to create such a platform for the students of mass communication. The seminar has really opened my eyes and enlightened me on a lot of things concerning communication and ICT as a whole… I basically believe that the advantages of ICT are more than the disadvantages simply because much of communication in the world today is rooted in ICT. The world pretty much evolves around ICT. I really appreciate my school for putting such a seminar together for the students I would really want to attend more of this.”

Simplice O. Ibukunoluwa – 200 Level Student, Department of Mass Communication, Caleb University, Ikorodu
“I have learnt that ICT is very important in the future of communication in Africa. Although ICT is already being used for this, the strategic series highlighted the fact that youths have fallen victims of the negative aspects of ICT, which is topped by pornography. ICT is a powerful tool that must be used the right way. Youths should be trained on how to use it the right way.”
